Two microstrip square loop resonators are used to obtain the dual-band filter characteristic. Each resonator uses a perturbation element to excite dual-modes. Distinct characteristics of new filters are investigated using full-wave electromagnetic simulations. It is also found that there are five reflection zeros. Three of them are inherently associated with the proposed topology, whereas the other reflection zeros near stopbands are associated with the perturbation. They may be easily adjusted by changing the size of the perturbation element. Four dual-band filters using dual-mode resonators are demonstrated with different asymmetric responses, which result from different locations of adjustable reflection zeros. Both simulated and measured results are presented and exhibit dual-mode dual-band bandstop responses with high sharpness.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessSquare loop resonatorDual-modeDual-bandBandstop filterConference Object925+10.1109/APMC.2009.53843192-s2.0-77950636617N/AWOS:000279924300235N/A
